I'll be thinking of you on Christmas Eve at 2:00pm while I'm kicked back enjoying a Captain Morgan and Coke. Ummm, no I won't.

damn, i'm never going to be first. oh, well. tough stuff about your sister. hope the party 'entertainment' goes well. maybe someone will record it and you'll be more famous than the kid with the broom handle pretending to be in star wars. remember him? no? ahem. goodbye.

damnit, who is the oscar award winning actress, sibling of the photographer your sister is flirting with...we need names!
-------------------------------April Ann - 2003-12-19 09:03:40
Yeah... my sister is like that too. She likes to remind people that she knows that Admiral of the Atlantic fleet *personally*. Anyway... watch out for the short guys with big noses and yarmulkes...

your sister sounds like my brother. He's an artist and sends celebrities his work, but when they send thank you notes...sometimes...he'll start talking like they're CLOSE PERSONAL FRIENDS of his. His last score was actor Bill Murray, who he brushed up against on a NY street. Now we talk about "Billy" when I go to his house. I think "Billy" may be getting a restaining order soon...

I find myself wondering why the story of the family of the brother of the famous actress hasn't popped up on Netscape yet, with a headline of "Oscar Winning Actress' Family Tragedy" yet.
I am also wondering whether or not Uncle Bob is circumsized, which makes two things that I would never have guessed I'd be wondering today. So...thanks...?
My mother-in-law met Ed Harris once at some kind of fund-raiser meet-n-greet thing in 1994 (met=shook his hand). Ever since then, she has referred to him simply as "Ed", and often wonders allowed what he's up to lately. She always follows that up with "Ed is a very good man." And she says it with a very serious face, like we are all supposed to nod solemnly and agree. I'm sure he's nice and all, but damn, crazy woman. Get over it!

I sure wish we could edit our posts here - I cringe at all my stupid mistakes.
I forgot to mention that I'm sure Uncle Bob's rap is going to blow the "Twas the day we got to leave work early" poem out of the water.

Hey sending an e-mail your way. I know that country club. hee
-------------------------------Patty - 2003-12-19 11:33:37
Hey Uncle Bob - Sorry to say, I don't think your sister is "happily married" at all. I so enjoy reading your entries each day!
-------------------------------Lysistrata - 2003-12-19 11:49:48
Huh. Wasn't that hard to find out who the actress was. And, oh yeah, gonna rain on Uncle Bob's parade. It's Marcia Gay Harden!

I saw someone famous once. At Winn Dixie in my small liltte nothing town in Oklahoma. Chit you not. It was Rue McClanahan of Golden Girls fame. Turns out she has family here and was here for the 4th of July. She looked like HELL. Hair all bushed out, not a stitch of makeup. She was buy 4 jars of Gerber bananas and 4 tins of vienna sausages. Rock on! She even got to got through the express lane, so fame does have its priviledges.

On a slightly ironic note, tonight is the first night of Hannukkah. Are you sure you aren't DJing a big Hannukkah party? If there's alot of candelabras around when you get there, you'll know for sure.

Small world.. I found out about the fire through another journal online.
-------------------------------Danelle - 2003-12-19 18:36:20
Gotta agree with Patty up there, a content, happy housewife wouldn't be doing this. Has her husband seen all the emails? If not, she's evidently got something to hide.
Anyway. Marcia Gay Harden? Hardly an A-lister. Big fat yawn.
I've also looked at the photographer in question. he's bald and unattractive, for one - second of all his photos are amateurish and unremarkable.
If sis is gonna cheat, she could do better.

google fire photographer actress
it's in the top ten

about the closest claim to fame i have had was meeting barry switzer. yes, i sold him a newspaper. not quite exciting, i know.
and Uncle Bob, are you aware you used the phrase "stylish mullet"?
-------------------------------Derek - 2003-12-20 01:22:53
The situation with your sister is making *me* uncomfortable, so I can only imagine how you feel. It sounds like several affairs borne of the internet. At least this wouldn't be the kind where the person she's cheating with is under 18.
-------------------------------angelika - 2003-12-20 13:50:45
i live across the street from where that fire took place, n my niece used to play with the little boy...two cute kids, and a nice lady...its just so sad...no idea that Marcia Gay Harden was their aunt...btw, Uncle Bob, you RULE!!
-------------------------------Lorrie - 2003-12-20 23:17:11
Yeah, I agree--the photographs don't look very interesting. But it's sad because I think the kid one with the little girl jumping in the air is the two poor kids that died. Heartbreaking for the dad, for sure.
-------------------------------tina - 2003-12-22 00:03:46
You might want to tell your sister that I shop at the same grocery store as Jack Palance.
-------------------------------ada - 2003-12-22 01:02:53
so, i was reading on u.b.'s comment board... and there was this girl... she lived across the street from this guy... who had a house fire which killed his children and wife... and this poor dad is related to marcia gay harden!!!!
i'm soooo cool....
-------------------------------Kelly in Hsv - 2003-12-29 20:36:18
lol Ada, that was good. Here's my claim to fame...my stepmom's newphew is married to this lady who's father used to work with Jeff Gordon's (Nascar Driver) mother before she was pregnant with Jeff. How many degrees of seperation is that? lol
